Porcine serum in lymphocyte culture for chromosomal studies has been utilized and found to be adequate. Moreover, although not commonly used, it is said that the constituents of porcine and human blood are nearly the same. It has also been suggested that porcine serum could be used in setting up peripheral lymphocyte culture for karyotyping.
